A Detroit man has been ordered to pay $30,000 dollars, or go to prison.

The reason? He owes back child support for a child that everyone agrees is not his. "I feel like I’m standing in front of a brick wall with nowhere to go," said Carnell Alexander. He says he learned about the paternity case against him during a traffic stop in Detroit in the early 90s.

This is completely unfair... They accused this man of fathering a child he proved he didn't. Instead of making things right and justice being served the "Judge" decided to ruin this man's life by putting $30k in debt.

This probably goes on more than you realize. This is all about money this guy is not rich, so he has little means to fight the judge and there are no guarantees the next judge won't also ignore evidence and continue to convict him. Unfortunately a lot of people can't afford to have any run ins with the law, I wouldn't be surprised if this man ends up paying all of this money.
